Mindfulness generally refers to the contemporary application of ancient Asian contemplative systems of thought to health and well-being whereas phenomenology is here understood within the philosophical tradition inaugurated by Edmund Husserl at the beginning of the last century. While the two systems of knowledge arose from vastly different cultural and historical contexts, the commonality between their respective methodologies and approaches can be remarkable. Many mindfulness practices are inherently phenomenological and many aspects of phenomenological scholarship and research share profound similarities with Asian mindfulness techniques and applications. The goal of this conference to explore, in an interdisciplinary spirit, the many shared latencies between these distinct yet cognate systems of knowledge and their applied practices.<\/p>\n<p>Featured Husserliana speaker:<\/p>\n<p>Michel Bitbol, Director of Research, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique Husserl Archives, \u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure, Paris http:\/\/michel.bitbol.pagesperso-orange.fr\/index.html<\/p>\n<p>Other invited speakers:<\/p>\n<p>Shaun Gallagher<br \/>\nThe Lillian and Morrie Moss Professor Department of Philosophy, University of Memphis<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.ummoss.org\/page1image12688 page1image12848<\/p>\n<p>Richard Kearney<br \/>\nThe Charles B.

Mindfulness meditation, is practiced both formally and informally. Formal practice includes setting aside time on a regular basis with the specific intention to be present and awake, moment to moment. Informal practice is an invitation to pause many times in a day and choose to be present. Mindfulness, also known as \u201cheartfulness\u201d, is present in all moments of a day, and all days of a life. The potential mental stability, awareness, and greater ease that are associated with the practice of mindfulness can be integrated with intention in relationships with other people. Many people share that, for them, relationships are a source of great joy and, at times, stress. Interpersonal mindfulness offers a means to experience greater freedom as we interact with others.<\/p>\n<p>In our evening together, you will be guided with mindfulness practices, sample a practice of relational mindfulness, explore how we as social beings, long for connection and also can infuse our interactions with greater awareness and compassion, which can enhance quality of life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Florence Meleo-Meyer, MS, MA<\/strong><br \/>\nFlorence Meleo-Meyer, MS, MA, is director of Train the Trainer Program in Oasis Institute, Mindfulness-Based Professional Education and Training at the Center for Mindfulness, in Medicine, Healthcare and Society, (CFM) at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, in Worcester, Massachusetts.
